* Implemented Eelco V.'s `-p' command to switch profiles. It switches the symlink ~/.nix-userenv to the given argument (which defaults to .../links/current). /etc/profile.d/nix-profile creates this symlink if it doesn't exist yet. Example use: $ nix-env -l my_profile -i foo.nix subversion quake $ nix-env -p my_profile I don't like the term "profile". Let's deprecate it :-) 2004-01-05 13:18:59 +02:00			`if test -n "$HOME"; then`
* Improvements to profiles. Generations are now per-profile, e.g., default -> default-94-link default-82-link -> /nix/store/cc4480... default-83-link -> /nix/store/caeec8... ... default-94-link -> /nix/store/2896ca... experimental -> experimental-2-link experimental-1-link -> /nix/store/cc4480... experimental-2-link -> /nix/store/a3148f... * `--profile' / `-p' -> `--switch-profile' / `-S' * `--link' / `-l' -> `--profile' / `-p' * The default profile is stored in $prefix/var/nix/profiles. $prefix/var/nix/links is gone. Profiles can be stored anywhere. * The current profile is now referenced from ~/.nix-profile, not ~/.nix-userenv. * The roots to the garbage collector now have extension `.gcroot', not `.id'. 2004-02-06 12:30:20 +02:00			`NIX_LINK="$HOME/.nix-profile"`
* We no longer use nix-populate standalone, rather we use it as a build action for `system' packages (like system.fix) that have dependencies on all packages we want to activate. So the command sequence to switch to a new activation configuration of the system would be: $ fix -i .../fixdescriptors/system.fix ... system.fix -> 89cf4713b37cc66989304abeb9ea189f $ nix-switch 89cf4713b37cc66989304abeb9ea189f * A nix-profile.sh script that can be included in .bashrc. 2003-04-09 15:26:48 +03:00
* Test whether the symlink, not its target, exists. 2004-01-16 17:17:36 +02:00			`if ! test -L "$NIX_LINK"; then`

add @coreutils@ to correctly use coreutils to create a profile. This is needed for NixOS, where we might not know our PATH in advance. 2005-10-11 20:30:57 +03:00			`@coreutils@/ln -s "$_NIX_DEF_LINK" "$NIX_LINK"`
